Los Cuatro Esqueletos Slot Review

Los Cuatro Esqueletos Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Los Cuatro Esqueletos slot has 5 reels, 3 rows and 10 fixed paylines. Simply land 3, 4 or 5 matching symbols across any of the paylines to get a winning combination. Beginning from the leftmost reel, symbols need to appear on successive reels (i.e. 1, 2 and 3) and across any of the 10 paylines. For the higher value symbols, 2 or more are required.

You can play Los Cuatro Esqueletos from 10p to £100 per spin. Changing your bet is simple enough: use the plus and/or minus buttons below the reels or from the ‘Coins’ icon on the mobile version. Players outside the UK have Autoplay which comes with optional loss, win and single-win limits as well as Turbo Mode.

The Los Cuatro Esqueletos RTP rate is 96% which is exactly the online slots average. With a 94% RTP version also available, the latter is the rate used at Unibet Casino (where the slot was first released exclusively). Furthermore, there is a Dream Drop version which has a 94% RTP rate with 12% contributing to the progressive jackpots (so an 82% RTP rate effectively).

Highly volatile (5/5), the hit frequency rate is 28.7% meaning a win will land, on average, every 3.48 spins. Finally, the Los Cuatro Esqueletos slot offers you 10,000 x bet max wins. That said, 5,000 x bet can be won on each spin/free spin with 10,000 x bet the maximum from the feature as a whole. Bigger wins are much more likely in the free spins due to expanding symbols. That said, the average win from the free spins is 69.04 x bet and 143.99 x bet from the Super free spins.

Theme: celebrate the Day of the Dead festival

With a Mexican theme, the Los Cuatro Esqueletos slot immerses you in the vibrant Day of the Dead festival. Set in a quaint Mexican village, this colourful offering is traditional with Mariachi music that will get you toe-tapping.

On the reels, you’ll come across A, K, Q, J and 10 royals which all appear on colourful headstones. The higher-value symbols include 4 Esqueletos (or skeletons) which are part of the Mariachi band. Most valuable is the Purple Esqueleto symbol which pays 1, 10, 100 or 500 x bet for 2, 3, 4 or 5 across a payline.

Then you have the Piñata Scatter/Wild symbol that substitutes for all other symbols when evaluating wins. 3 or more will trigger the Free Spins feature. Collect 600 or more to play the Super Free Spins feature (more details below).

Los Cuatro Esqueletos Bonus Features

The Los Cuatro Esqueletos online slot benefits from 2-3 bonus features. There are free spins with 1 special expanding symbol. In the Super Free Spins feature, you begin with 2 special expanding symbols with retriggers awarding more free spins an extra special expanding symbol. In the jackpot version, the Dream Drop Bonus feature will award 1 of 5 progressive jackpots. The Mega Jackpot pays up to €3 million.

Free Spins feature

Landing 3 or more Piñata Scatter/Wild symbols anywhere on the reels will trigger the Free Spins feature. With 10 free spins awarded, you can retrigger the feature to give you another 10 free spins (with no limits).

Before the free spins begin, 1 symbol is chosen to act as the expanding symbol. When it appears on the reels, it will expand to take over the whole reel. The more valuable the expanding symbol, the larger your win potential. Here’s what a screen full of expanded symbols (5 reels) will award:

Super Free Spins feature

When you land Piñata Scatter/Wild symbols in the base game, they are collected. The Super Free Spins feature is triggered by collecting 600 Piñata Scatter/Wild symbols. There is a meter on the left-hand side of the reels showing your progress.

With 10 free spins awarded, 2 special symbols are selected randomly before the super free spins begin. These special symbols expand to fill the reel they land on (i.e. expanding symbols). You can retrigger the feature for an extra 10 free spins and an additional special symbol. Unlimited retriggers are possible too meaning all symbols will become special expanding symbols.

Dream Drop Bonus feature

There is a Los Cuatro Esqueleto Dream Drop slot available too. Like the non-jackpot version, you have the added extra of the Dream Drop Bonus feature. A jackpot spin is randomly triggered where you’ll get a regular spin with only blanks and Los Cuatro Esqueleto DD symbols appearing on the reels.

If 5 Los Cuatro Esqueleto DD symbols appear, you’ll enter the Dream Drop Bonus feature. With 5 progressive jackpots to be won, you can land stone blocks or DD symbols. DD symbols remain on the reels with stone blocks being destroyed. You carry on spinning until 1 of the reels is filled by DD symbols. The reel you fill corresponds to a jackpot. Here is what they are worth:

Los Cuatro Esqueletos Review Summary: ‘Book of’ slot with a Mexican flavour

Basically, the Los Cuatro Esqueletos slot is a ‘Book of’ game with a few added extras. Thematically, it doesn’t take you to ancient Egypt which is a welcome change in my opinion. This is not to take away from the likes of Play ‘n GO’s Book of Dead which is an iconic title.

In terms of the gameplay, the Free Spins feature is pretty standard with 1 special expanding symbol and unlimited retriggers up for grabs. However, collecting 600 Piñata Scatter/Wild symbols will result in the Super Free Spins feature.

The Super Free Spins feature begins with 2 special expanding symbols with each retrigger awarding additional free spins and an extra special expanding symbol. It’s a little like the Legacy of Dead slot (by Play ‘n GO) but you start with 1 extra special expanding symbol. Another option is Thunderkick’s Sword of Shoguns which can give you 4 expanding symbols and 25,200 x bet max wins.

With 10,000 x bet max wins advertised, this can be won in the Free Spins feature or the Super Free Spins feature as a whole. Per spin or free spin, a 5,000 x bet jackpot can be won (by landing a screen full of Purple Esqueleto symbols).

If you play the Dream Drop version, you have the chance to win 5 progressive jackpots. I don’t recollect any ‘Book of’ slot offering progressive jackpots. The downside is that the actual RTP is 82% as 12% is kept for the Dream Drop Bonus feature.

To conclude, the Los Cuatro Esqueletos slot is another ‘Book of’ game with Super Free Spins that can give you various special expanding symbols. With a Dream Drop version, fans of the ‘Book of’ concept will certainly find this game appealing.
